Reviews of Monterey Moon Tree
"Really cool to see a tree grown from a space seed"
"super cool nugget of history here - in 1971, a bunch of seeds were taken to the moon and then were brought back to earth to be studied to see if and how space affected the seeds at all. I definitely recommend looking up and reading the full story of the seeds’ trip to the moon! unfortunately, like we humans often do, the trees were put on the back burner and not given the attention they deserved, and not many of the 400 seedlings were tracked and so we only know where a handful of them are now. but I’m happy one of them made it to Monterey and has been cared for well! lots of other nice plants in this area as well, along with the interesting and disturbing history behind the jail and Colton Hall…"
"Cool tree, with a cool origin, right in a nice little park. Great spot to stop and relax for a little bit."
"Didn't know tree existed! Neat story, but tree is nondescript. Because you're in the area might as well drop by for a pic. Not many people have seen a Moon Tree. See other peoples' posts for pics. Next to tree is historic building in which the California constitutional convention was held as well as a historic jail."
"This is simply cool to see and wonder at. It's a hidden gem in the heart of old Monterey, right next to the Colton museum, making it a perfect combination. A seed that was in orbit, and the place where the CA constitution was created and signed."
